It's recruiting. You think Nick or any other SEC coach doesn't do the same?
i gaurantee you nick saban does not even mention other schools when taking to a recruit. Why would he? Numerous recruits have confirmed this over the years, bama coaches talk about bama

Technically that is negative recruiting and speaks to Les' inferiority complex in regards to Saban and Alabama.

There is a thread on the front page of this board that shoots this down.

Do you know what technically means?

and don't bring up inferiority of other programs pertaining to Alabama.

Was it Mullen who threatened the young man that he would never reach the NFL?

Idk but lane kiffin sure did. Told Laittimore he'd end up pumping gas if he went to USC. Although he may be right...(kidding)

You consider that negative recruiting?

How weak-minded are you?

That's weak sauce. Nothing wrong with any of that, if it's even true.

Thank you for that response.

I was hoping even most Alabama fans wouldn't mind this, if true.

He's just trying to make an opinion that a recruit might have an easier opportunity to start sooner.. that's not exactly negative recruiting. If anything he was praising Alabama for being stacked..

You can't hate on him for trying this pitch.. even if you don't think his opinion is true.

Spare me. Whether or not he should have said that is irrelevant. If there were an article about Sabes doing that, yall would have a 10 page post about it.


We would still have a majority of people who would understand it.. if he was doing this exact thing.

If you consider telling a recruit they may have an easier opportunity here as being negative.

If Saban said the exact same thing then I would see no issue..

but if Saban was actually saying... negative things.. then yes people would be pissed. If he said something like Miles can't get you to the NFL.. blah blah.. then yes that would be a bitch move.. But if Saban was saying Oh LSU is really loaded at a particular position and we need you.. who cares.

This is not negative recruiting though.

It's both funny and sad that you believe this.

Sounds like something Mullen would say.

Why would that Kentucky kid lie? Why does it hurt your feelings so much if Bama negative recruits sometimes?

One of the reasons I respect Saban is that I don't believe for a moment he gets into negative recruiting, but if the worst anyone can say about Miles is the above, he's probably better than most head coaches in that regard.


Do you think he did it a lot more when he was at Michigan State or LSU pre winning a handful of titles. I damn well think Urban and Saban did it with the best of them in their careers but don't have to as much since they've won multiple titles. He'll IM sure Meyer still does it
